Ask Me Another

Check The Rhyme

All right, now we're going to crown this week's grand champion. Let's bring back our winners from all of our previous games. From Street Smarts, we have Joe Di Dio.

(APPLAUSE)

EISENBERG: From a Purr-fect Game, we have Michael Haskell. From Sprechen Sie Deutsch, we have Alanna Miller. From Musical Weather Report, we have Jamie Kopf. And from Supermarket to the Stars, we have Helene Busby.

MARY TOBLER: My pleasure. This game is called Check your Rhyme. All the answers will be people or things with a self-rhyming name, meaning the person's first and last name rhyme or the words in the product or band name rhyme. All you have to do is give us the rhyme.

For example, if I said this actor is one half of the band Tenacious D, you'd say Jack Black. We're playing this spelling bee style, so one wrong answer and you're out. You'll only have a few seconds to give us an answer and the last person standing is our grand winner. Ready? Joe, it's E.T. the Extraterrestrial's favorite candy.
